# What works today

> A capability matrix for IXO: what is available with real money, what runs only in the sandbox, what is not available, and where each status comes from.

This page lists what you can do on IXO, on which network, and with which known limits. Use it
before you plan around a feature. A guide existing for something does not mean the thing is live,
so every table here names where its statuses come from.

## How to read a status

| Status | Meaning |
| --- | --- |
| Available | The source documents it as working with real money, or on mainnet. |
| Sandbox only | It works with practice money or on a test network, and not with real money. |
| By arrangement | IXO turns it on for you. You cannot switch it on yourself. |
| Not available | The source says it cannot be done. |
| Not documented | Nothing in these docs or the product's own documentation describes it. |

Try a path in the sandbox or on a test network before you use real money.
